tender moments in the heart of the city
kind staff clean room wide range
The reception staff showed kindness and efficiency. our room was kept very clean and warm. the breakfast included many choices. It had a wide variety of food and drinks. it was easy to begin our exploration of the city... a short walk took us to o'connell street.
the walls seemed thin, i could hear sounds from neighboring rooms. the hotel could benefit from some soundproofing improvements. this would really enhance the overall stay.

The owner showed a personal touch by greeting guests and suggest perfect local spots. The hotel boasted really well decorated common areas, it offered spaces for relaxation. The reception staff was really good. They were both swift and helpful. Our super clean room featured comfortable amenities.

My room faced the road, and it had some traffic noise early in the morning from buses.
